I am aware that Frank tool provide option for capturing screenshot. But it is a user defined step.

Taking a screenshot of the app:

Then /^I save a screenshot with prefix (\w+)$/ do |prefix|
 filename = prefix + Time.now.to_i.to_s
 %x[screencapture #{filename}.png]
end

But is there any other possibility of by default saving the screenshot in case of unexpected test failure ?

    Assuming the application is still open, you could use an After hook to call the Frank step that takes screenshots if the test failed.

    Try this:

    After do |scenario|
        if scenario.failed?
            steps %Q{
                Then I save a screenshot with prefix test
            }
        end 
    end
